You can promise me a future.

Dear educators, I have been thinking.
I don't think we should be trained into money making and obeying people

Instead
I think I should make homes for the insects I see hiding in the bushes
I think I should make a warm bath for my guardian
I think I should not be as afraid of dancing with the one I love
I think I should dare to pick a berry from a bush and eat it.

Let me not forget about the ruthless beauty of our existence
Teach me how to love it
How to survive

Curriculum creator, let us utilize our classrooms in the most healthy way possible
to let us slowly breath in and breathe out into a new, sustainable, generation
where both mine and Sarah’s, and Noa’s, and Mischa and Mohammed’s and Aisha’s belly can be full
So that we can play
And progress.
Exist

Curriculum creator, let us merge all documented knowledge to meet our basic needs in the most effective way possible
let me tell you what I need
and then maybe we could create a space within which we can survive
and thrive.

Let me care
And then perhaps
You can promise me a future.

this is a poem i have made about a potential future

I would like the future to be more restful than the period we are currently living in. I would like humanity to be more respectful of its environment but also of people. By 2040, all people would be aware of the environment. Degrowth would have started, but it would have had a positive impact on everyone. More consumption to excess, everyone would consume what is available in his country or close environment geographically.

It's 2040. Artificial intelligence, which has been properly regulated and implemented so that it really serves humanity, helps us in many aspects of life. However, it is prohibited in several areas, such as art and culture. its participation is allowed but only as a component part of a given work or cultural product. All people receive dividends from what is produced in the automation process. No one has to work to survive, because dividend money is enough for all basic needs and even more, but most people still work because it gives their lives meaning and raises their social status. Money, however, is no longer the main driver of action, it is precisely the status acquired by contributing to society. Humanity flew to Mars and further plans are underway to conquer space. Many new sources of energy have been discovered, so that coal is no longer an attractive raw material at all. Life expectancy has increased significantly and is increasing by several years each year, so everyone agrees that the prospect of colonizing other planets will become a necessity sooner rather than later.

Be Europos vėžio Rusijos
The Russian state has collapsed and no longer poses a threat to Europe. The Russians pay for the damage caused to Ukraine during the war. EU leaders have emerged who represent the EU well and are respected around the world, have a clear voice and significant influence. A unified NATO army has been established to ensure peace and security for all members. Putler is recognised as a war criminal and dies in prison. Only legal migrants enter the EU and there are no longer terrorist attacks and threats. The EU economy is growing, the number of educated people is increasing and climate change is being taken more seriously.

Leben und nicht überleben
Well-paid work for all, price adjustments for low-income earners. Work shyness that doesn't want to work to make work necessary or else cut the citizen's money. Lowering electricity, heating and gasoline costs should remain affordable and not be a luxury . Equal curricula for the federal state prevails with the same pace of learning.
